This document reports on a series of experimental and theoretical studies conducted to assess the astro-particle physics potential three future large-scale particle detectors proposed in Europe as next generation underground observatories. The apparatus employ different and, some extent, complementary detection techniques: GLACIER (liquid Argon TPC), LENA scintillator) MEMPHYS (\WC), based use large mass liquids active media. results these are presented along with critical discussion...
Nitrous oxide (N
Nitrous oxide (N2O) dominates greenhouse gas emissions in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). Formation of N2O occurs during biological nitrogen removal, involves multiple microbial pathways, and is typically very dynamic. Consequently, mitigation strategies require an improved understanding transformation pathways their modulating controls. Analyses the (N) oxygen (O) isotopic composition its substrates at natural abundance have been shown to provide valuable information on formation...
Combining partial nitrification, granular activated carbon (GAC) filtration, and distillation is a well-studied approach to convert urine into fertilizer. To evaluate the environmental sustainability of technology, operational footprint therefore nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions should be known, but N2O from nitrification have not been assessed yet. Therefore, decentralized reactor were monitored for 1 month. During 0.4–1.2% total nitrogen load was emitted as N2O-N with an average emission...
